Bottom line, China should focus on the economy. Nuclear weapons didn't save USSR, they won't save China either.
China is focused on economy. Focusing on economy does not mean you let someone bully you around militarily.
Nuclear weapons DID save the USSR. Nuclear weapons made sure no one ever invaded the USSR ever again or ever get into a direct conflict with them.
USSR collapsed due to their state-controlled economy where prices of goods and services were set by the state. Their entire economy was controlled by a few big state-owned companies.
Having a large nuclear arsenal assures Mutually Assured Destruction scenario in place.
That practically eliminates any country messing with you.
